been corrected to flip the executable bit for all paths that match
the given pathspec.
+ * When "git format-patch --stdout" output is placed as an in-body
+ header and it uses the RFC2822 header folding, "git am" failed to
+ put the header line back into a single logical line. The
+ underlying "git mailinfo" was taught to handle this properly.

Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
* "git clone --recurse-submodules" lost the progress eye-candy in
recent update, which has been corrected.
+ * A low-level function verify_packfile() was meant to show errors
+ that were detected without dying itself, but under some conditions
+ it didn't and died instead, which has been fixed.

+
+ * When "git fetch" tries to find where the history of the repository
+ it runs in has diverged from what the other side has, it has a
+ mechanism to avoid digging too deep into irrelevant side branches.
+ This however did not work well over the "smart-http" transport due
+ to a design bug, which has been fixed.

+ * In the codepath that comes up with the hostname to be used in an
+ e-mail when the user didn't tell us, we looked at ai_canonname
+ field in struct addrinfo without making sure it is not NULL first.
+ (merge c375a7efa3 jk/ident-ai-canonname-could-be-null later to maint).
+
+ * "git worktree", even though it used the default_abbrev setting that
+ ought to be affected by core.abbrev configuration variable, ignored
+ the variable setting. The command has been taught to read the
+ default set of configuration variables to correct this.
